Iván Fischer conducts Beethoven. The complete symphonies. Symphony no. 3 in E flat major, op. 55 (Eroica)
Description
Starting in 1922, the Concertgebouw Orchestra performed a Beethoven cycle at the end of each season, during which all the symphonies - and other works too - would be performed, often in quick succession. The cycle was interrupted for the first time in 1957 for three performances of Beethoven's Missa solemnis. The tradition then began to dwindle, with the last Beethoven Series performed in 1978. Now for the very first time, the orchestra will be performing all the symphonies in a single cycle, spread out over two seasons, under the direction of Iván Fischer.
